I think he thinks keeping healthy is all you need to do to stay healthy. unfortunately that isn't the case, and that's why we need healthcare.

A pity he didn't take this to its other logical conclusion. Part of preventative health care is treating things early before they do damage. So take the blood pressure tablets now and avoid a stroke later. Treat the raised intra-ocular pressure now and avoid blindness later.
